at least with backgrounds people would know we couldn't have made something of that quality. Uli actually looks like he'd be from here.

Im making a card based rpg. Its gonna be pixel art styled.Im working on the base gameplay in unity.
Im not that good at c# but im gonna have classes this semester and i pretend to expand my knowledge after learning the basics. As its going to be a fairly simple project i pretend to finish it before 2018.

You could argue no one posts about them because they're not in the OP. Information in the OP should be objective, not subjective according to the whims of who thinks which engine is "valid"

>>166656565

I know it's nothing, but it's probably the last bit of progress I can make today.
Also I was wondering, would it be annoying if, when you press the key to make the mechanical arm work, you first need to wait for the player character to go to the machine and activate it? Would it be annoying?

>>166657209
>If its that easy to trigger people here
Learn to read. The mere existence of Unity pains him so much that he tries to hide it from the OP. Like Unity is a person and he is spiting them and it will be offended and have it's feelings hurt. When really it just shows that Unity triggers nodevs hard.

>>166657382
I wish the ECS in unity wasn't dogshit, it's so hard to get objects to interact

>>166657374
Would it be fun to watch the character move to the thing for the 100th time?

>>166657440
Yes. She is cute.

>>166657440
That's my doubt though then again, I don't know if anyone will play the game long enough to get to that point

>>166657432
Isn't ECS where you're not supposed to have objects interacting, but manager classes that interact with them?

It's not hard you just don't like the workflow.

>>166657374
I think it'd be fine if there was an option to skip/fast forward the animation if the player wanted.
Something like double tapping the key to warp her there or something.

>>166657547
no, it's legitimately hard, often I don't know how interaction is even supposed to be possible because you can't pass messages, you can't easily get references and you can't really do anything except drag and drop, which is fine only for very simple projects

>>166657541
there are no pure classes in unity, only components, so no you can't do that, you must get the components to interact directly

>>166658730
>you can't easily get references
Whats wrong with GetComponent?

>>166658873
you have to hardcode every single reference, so you can't dynamically figure out who you are talking to

>>166657541
You're supposed to separate data and logic so that the logic can operate on multiple pieces of data (components) at once.

It doesn't have to be manager classes or anything, it's very abstract. Unity doesn't fit the bill because all the component logic is encapsulated in the components themselves. It's compositional as opposed to inheritance-based, but it's not ECS.

>>166658060
maybe, yeah. if you give the system entity a global name and hardcode that reference into the data scripts to register themselves when they get spawned

>>166658926
You can pass types to GetComponent or even strings that are component type names

In Python can an object hold a list of methods, either its own or another objects? Or can it only hold functions?

>>166659139
>pass
from where?

>>166658994
So to be proper ECS components shouldn't have functions, only fields? And then like static classes for the data processing?

>>166658691
Whats the license on this stuff (granted it obviously doesn't apply to people who haven't bought it in the first place). Like do you have to credit the individual/group/seller or can you just use them once you bought them?

>>166659274
Methods of an object are essentially just functions that take the object as a parameter. Many languages have syntax to turn this into x.foo() as opposed to foo(x). Python also has closures, though, which means you can wrap up an object and a method (among other things) into just a function value that can be passed around. So yes to both.

>>166659376
They can have their own methods, but generally they should be (at least conceptually) pure data that is exposed well enough that you can write functions at a "higher level" that operate on multiple components. If these functions need to go in static classes as static methods, then that's what has to happen, but you don't need any so-called manager classes.

>>166659502
If it's used in a free product you don't have to do anything. It's NICE to credit the group involved but not required.

If it's used in a commercial product you don't have to credit if you're the purchaser of the product, but if you do use it without credit and you aren't the one who bought it you risk legal troubles.

>>166659376
a static class won't get called in unity unless a component calls it, everything has to be a component

>>166659376
>>166659570
Well, in Unity, you will need some kind of "manager class" to act in place of code that would just run in the main function or another function called by the main function. But all that manager class will do is store all the entities/components and call the systems (functions operating on components) over the entities that have those components.

I would also argue against doing the popular ECS design where all you have is arrays of components and entities are indices. That's way more genericity than you need in practice and leads to poor efficiency. I prefer to have types for each entity type that just have components as fields.

in 3.5 the positioning of mouse is fucked for retina displays and is basically unreliable on mac laptops because of it as well as iphones. 3.6 uses a different renderer completely and has no issues with retina displays anymore. Use the latest 3.6 dev build to develop with, it's basically stable anyway.

should i even bother to fix these or just leave them there? using sprites instead of a drawn circle causes the same effect

also gamepad support is pretty much 100% in, not simultaneously but ALMOST (you have to press anything on either KB+M or Gamepad to switch between them) but i should run it through other people because i've barely played twin stick shooters with a gamepad at all before

>>166661785
I didn't feel like reposting the poll since everyone was so negative about it and that I myself didn't feel like leading anyway.

Truthfully the idea could work, I'm sure of that, but it'd need to have a few really motivated people leading. Without leaders you can sure the project would end up failing because no one would want to commit into something seemingly unstable.

>>166662864
The solution would be to have two surfaces, one for the brighter part of the lights and one for the darker part. In both cases, you draw to full white (or erase the alpha, depends on how you intend to blend it back in) and make the darker surface less effective.

I don't really have anything to show yet, so I don't feel like I can put on a show...

As for art, I'm a programmer, not an artist. Best I can do is make character sprites in the style I chose for my game. Which, you know, maybe I can open commissions for that or something. I dunno, I'd just like a little extra so I can actually afford things. I'll have to think about this more.

As long as the player is aware that they can push objects like the bookshelf, yeah, that's fair. You hint at it pretty well (the lowered part of the wall that forms the door frame, the way the bookshelf itself is emphasized).

The only thing I'd look at is, even in the webm, you can kind of see through a crack between the top of the bookshelf and the bottom of the doorframe.Maybe raise the height of the bookshelf's model a bit?

I initially considered Famitracker to work with, but I quickly realized that I wouldn't get the job done as quickly as I'd want to. As an FL Studio user, I found PXTone much more familiar to use. With a little effort, I can do most of the stuff I can pull off with Famitracker.

Knowing that you're affecting shit in vidya is a very important thing, even if it's not an entirely mechanical thing

tl;dr games need substance but juice doesn't equal bad

Spent quite some time (like 1 month?) upgrading my game from the OGRE 1.0 system to the OGRE 2.0 system. It was worth it in the end, just about tripled my framerate, gave me really efficient shadows so I can have tree shadows now, and fixed some problems I was having with overlapping alpha textures and alpha texture shadows.

Also I made this new "happy" forest tileset, to contrast the spooky forest tileset I had before.

Is interpolating player/camera rotation for mouselook ever a good idea? I'm doing some basic FPS mouselook stuff, and it looks juddery whenever I'm moving and looking around at the same time.

>>166669042
Never. Mouselook should be as unfiltered as possible.

>>166669342
Unity. I'll see if I can record it.
I don't know if juddery is the right word, it just seems like it's turning far enough in each step that it doesn't look smooth. I'm wondering if interpolating the movement would fix it or give a mouse-smoothing type effect that makes precision harder.

Idea guy here.

Imagine Advance Wars but on a hexagonal grid.

>>166668675
Very nice, anon.

How's Ogre compared to "plain" OGL?

>>166669942
They're not even comparable.

>>166668918
He's not an enginedev since he's using Ogre.

>>166669282
It's normal for anything causing any kind of strain, mental or physical. But especially mental.

>>166668637

>>166670179
Ogre isn't a game engine.

>>166669942
I haven't used OGL before, but I've used plain OpenGL and the first reply you got is about right. They're not comparable really, Ogre is fairly high level (at least the 2.0 version is, the 1.0 version you still had to do a lot of shader coding which I don't miss).

>>166669042
You can implement a smoothing function, but it will introduce lag.

>>166670412
It is a graphics engine though.

camera movement was already in update
I'm moving the player character by setting the rigidbody's velocity. Open to suggestions on how to better move a player character, btw. I was doing it in fixedupdate, but I moved it to update and that didn't change anything.

turning on the rigidbody component's interpolation and extrapolation settings actually made it worse

To be honest, the engine part should look like this in the OP:

Engines
For 2D: GameMaker
For 3D: Unity

And that's it. If you use any other engine, then that's because you have already dug deep enough to find one which you like. With having the "For .D" tag, we could be safe from the daily "what engine to use for 2/3D?" questions.

I'm really debating whether I should finish my first game or not. Basically all that's left is find better sounds, create a few more levels with Tiled, minor UI updates and fix a few bugs.
However the game itself alright, but gets kinda boring pretty soon. And to fix most of the problems with the game would take almost as long as creating a new one. I'm sure I could do much better now that I've learned all these new things.
I didn't really make it expecting to make money, I thought I'd just throw it on steam with the rest of the garbage for 1-2$ or something and make 50$ or something. But I'm not sure I want to be associated with the quality of the product I'd be putting out.

I tried out 3D modelling last year and I feel your pain
I had fun with it but making things more complex than very basic shapes were fucking tedious

look at pic related for example: it's a bunch of individual shapes smashed together and i didn't even texture it

this is the extent of my 3d skills

I really liked this game.

They managed to weave the humour of the cutscenes into the mechanics and the character was cool.
